Microsoft, meanwhile, will reiterate their commitment to continuing to release Call of Duty on PlayStation indefinitely, as they will say that these kinds of figures wouldn’t be remotely possible without the game being sold on PS4 and PS5.With Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2‘s season 3 just around the corner Call of Duty today dropped a lengthy blog post outlining the changes and additions making their way to both Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 in the coming season. Sony will point to these astonishing figures and say that no one console manufacturer should have that much sales power exclusively in their hands. What I am most interested to see in the wake of this $800 million weekend and what will be a billion dollar haul by probably Friday is how it factors into the ongoing dispute between Microsoft and Sony over the acquisition of Activision Blizzard and Microsoft’s pending stewardship of Call of Duty. And maybe over the last Modern Warfare, as well.

And now that multiplayer is here, that aspect has attracted many fans as well, with some saying it’s the best entry in the series in years, more so than Cold War and Vanguard at least.

Before launch, the campaign was released early, and everyone was marveling at its photorealistic graphics that at times, looked almost indistinguishable from reality. How did it do it? For starters, Modern Warfare is the most popular sub-series in the Call of Duty pantheon, but in addition to that, the game is just…quite good, when it’s not enduring technical issues.
